Memories of the Afterlife: What We Can Learn From Our Life Between Lives
by Michael Newton, Ph.D.

I have written three books about our soul journey from death through the life between lives experience and finally the spiritual path we take into the next life and our new body. These three books, Journey of Souls, Destiny of Souls, and Life Between Lives, contain over one hundred case histories involving my discoveries about the spirit world. Now there is a new Llewellyn book on this subject called Memories of the Afterlife. This book about our life between lives (LBL) is different from my other books in two respects. First, this time around I was primarily the editor working with the cases of thirty-two LBL hypnotherapists. I wrote the introduction and footnotes after each story to give the reader greater perspective about the topics discussed in each case, due to the fact that they are essentially different short stories designed as book chapters rather than one large novel with one author. Secondly, what makes this book so unique is that each case contains details concerning a post-session follow-up with every client who went through a life between lives hypnosis procedure. Our organization wanted to document the benefits of spiritual regression in terms of how the information received resulted in significant life-changing personal gain.

The authors of all the stories in Memories of the Afterlife are LBL hypnotherapists that my staff and I have trained under the direction of the Newton Institute of Life Between Lives Hypnotherapy (TNI). They are all certified by TNI with years of experience both as traditional and past-life hypnotherapists before being trained in our methodology for life between lives work. These authors represent many different voices, from regions as far apart as Australia, Europe, Asia, and the US. We have LBL practitioners in some twenty-two countries offering LBL hypnotherapy in nine different languages.

Each of the stories in the book describes the client and their presenting problem—the issues that brought this individual to the LBL hypnotherapist—and how the case unfolded in their office. The cases include past life information and what events took place in the afterlife that intimately transformed the client as a result of their hypnosis experience. All the authors chose to write about cases that were most intriguing to them and that would be of interest to the general public. The fact that the book contains the individual work of thirty-two authors brings a variety of style and content to each page.

An Interview with Michael Newton, Ph.D., Author of Memories of the Afterlife
by Llewellyn

1. The subtitle to your new book, Memories of the Afterlife, is “Life Between Lives Stories of Personal Transformation.” Could you explain this subtitle in a little more detail?

The subtitle represents, for the first time in a major literary work, a primary theme of the benefits for having a life between lives hypnosis regression session. In each of the thirty-three cases discussed in Memories of the Afterlife (one of my own in the introduction and thirty-two cases by authors of the Newton Institute), follow up studies were implemented with the clients to learn how the LBL session significantly impacted and improved their lives. This information is detailed in our book.

2. How would you separate the study of life between lives with that of past life hypnosis regression?

For many years people engaged in the work of hypnosis regression worked with the past lives of their clients. The place in between was considered, "a grayish limbo of no consequence" to many hypnosis people. In l968, I had my first life between lives case and after years of study wrote my first book on the subject, called Journey of Souls , in l994. Since then, more and more hypnotherapists have become engaged with what I call Spiritual Regression. This means taking subjects into the spirit world between their lives. Certified regression therapists of the Newton Institute do work in past life regression in terms of taking a person through a past life death scene in order to reach the afterlife between. At the moment of physical death people pass into the light which may also involve "the tunnel effect" in order to reach the spirit world as souls in a non-physical state.

3. Why is life between lives important?

The information one receives from the superconscious mind as a soul in the afterlife is simply incredible. Unlike a simple past life session, subjects of LBL gain access to the age old questions of: Who am I? Where did I come from? Why am I here? Where am I going after death? The detail readers will receive from the cases in Memories of the Afterlife not only explains many of the mysteries of life but also how good hypnotherapy by well-trained professionals can improve the mental health of clients.

4. How can we access our life between lives? Is hypnotherapy the only way?
